Why am I being prompted to sign in to Mevio.com

It is likely that one or more of the podcasts you are subscribed to are hosted on Mevio. If Mevio now requires a username and password to access the feed, you will be prompted to enter valid Mevio credentials.

I believe Mevio used to be a podcast hosting provider. This likely means that that particular podcast is no longer available.

Contact whoever is in charge of that podcast. They might be unaware that their feed is configured wrong. Or they may be able to give you a link that works.

I started having the exact same problem as you, about the same time as you. I also get prompted when I try to visit www.mevio.com

The dialogue keeps popping up in iTunes. Even after I tried turning off all my podcast subscriptions.

This is the dialogue that keeps prompting in my iTunes and making my iTunes icon jump in the dock.

It's driving me crazy. Who are these iTerrorists?

It doesn't even say which podcast, so I could remove it and [pod]cast it into the fires of ****. Somebody please uncover the solution to this problem !

Have you contacted the podcast author?

Who is the podcast author? Which podcast does this dialogue belong to?

I see what you mean. ITunes doesn't give any indication of the actual server location of each podcast. Without that, it's challenging to discover which of your podcasts is the one causing the trouble. In iTunes, do any of your podcasts have and alert symbol next to them? That might be the only tip you will have as to which podcast is causing the problem.

As for background on Mevio, they recently exited the podcast hosting business. You can read about that here.

The iTunes store is only a directory of odcasts, it doesn't host the podcast files for download. It just has pointers to the files on whatever server the author is using to host the files. When that server stops accepting connections (like Mevio did), your downloads will fail. Unfortunately, iTunes can't fix this. You have to get in touch with the podcast author, and if they have moved their podcast to a new hosting server, then they need to update their entry in the iTunes store to point to the new host. If their new host is up and running, but iTunes store isn't updated yet, you should be able to subscribe to the new server manually. iTunes has an option to subscribe to a new podcast manually, so you'd just need the new URL to paste into the requisite field.

⚠ Only Mac OS Ken - because I need to catch up on the episodes and therefore it has stopped downloading new episodes.

"You have to get in touch with the podcast author, and if they have moved their podcast to a new hosting server, then they need to update their entry in the iTunes store to point to the new host"

-- I wish I could. But who is the podcast author?

I've now tried turning off the subscription on ALL my podcasts. Let's see if it keeps prompting me grrrrr lol

It's driving me nuts.

EVEN when I turn off ALL podcast subscriptions, the mevio dialogue keeps prompting me.

Will I have to delete all my podcasts?

Do any of your podcasts have an alert symbol next to them?

Earlier I mentioned that Mac OS Ken had a ! symbol.
But since then, no.

www.mevio.com = evil

I have the ! alert on several unsubscribed (dead) podcasts. Three of which are trying to connect to www.mevio.com. But like I stated, I am no longer subscribed to them. Its like iTunes is trying to connect to unsubscribed podcasts.

iTunes may still be trying to status some info from those feeds even though you are un-subscribed. That may not go away until you completely delete the podcasts from you system.

How can you tell which of your podcasts the mevio dialogue is related to?
